Evacuation Information
If you must evacuate
 |
The most important instruction you will receive from local government
officials, relayed over radio and television stations, is an evacuation order.
Once issued, an evacuation order is mandatory under law in the state of
Florida. If you live in a mobile home or an area ordered to evacuate, gather
your survival kit and leave immediately. If you live in a safe area, secure
your home and be prepared to stay. Because of long evacuation times and the
unpredictability of hurricanes, you may be ordered to leave before a hurricane
watch or warning is issued.
Pre-register If you live in Leon County, register now with the Leon County Division of
Emergency Management. If you cannot make arrangements for transportation or other special
assistance due to age, disabilities, or other special need. |
Note: Buses and other transportation will not be available when a tropical
storm or hurricane warning is issued.
